PSD is a set of buildings, machinery, materials, electronics and information science and other high-tech products for a subway platform. The screen door separate the train station area and station, which open by automatically control system.
PSD divided into closed, open and half-height, which open and half-height is often called "security gate", only play the role of safety and aesthetics. Closed, people are usually called "screen door", which is the most common one.
